Stable Diffusion is an AI tool that lets one generate images using either text prompts or other images. It uses datasets to generate new and original visual content. Stable Diffusion users call these datasets models. Using the models requires skill and knowledge; there is an analogy with professional photography - mere button-pressing will lead to unimpressive results. Thus, similarly to photography, one needs to learn to interact with the tool that interacts with the environment. Arguably, then art is created.
Stable Diffusion's actual image generation takes a chunk of time; we all can save each other time, help each other and speed up the learning process if we share promps and the images they generated. Thus, this thread is primarily a prompt/nrompt (negative prompt) sharing thread with images and grids being secondary to prompts.
Please share your prompts/nrompts, images and grids. Do not share just the images as there are better threads for this.
Rules:
- Stable Diffusion only. If you would like to use other tools, please create new threads for the respective tools.
- Images without prompts are absolute taboo and will be reported as breaking the rules. This is not AI-art sharing thread. The AI-sharing thead is here: link. A qualifying post must have:
- model name with a link to get it.
- prompt/nrompt. If the nrompt (negative prompt) is empty, do expressly state so. Please use spoilers for the promts.
- a grid of images attached, ideally 6x5 so readers can get a feel what kind of images that prompt will generate.
- actual image or images. Please use spoilers for all but one image. Images should be resized to fit the page. Any image requiring scrolling might end being reported on. Please avoid situations where the viewers need to scroll across one image
- Points 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 can be ignored if your image contains meta for the prompts, seed, model name, etc. These are mostly *.png files. A jpeg file doesn't contain prompt meta and hence an automatic violation of the requirements - subject to administrative action.
- Tutorials, ideas, suggestions are great. Discussion is OK.
- Trolling or garbage quality will be removed. Nudity is great, weird and freaky content is prooobably not. Cringe and gross content are definitely not.
- If sharing someone else's work always credit the creator if known. Else: "Creator: unclaimed". The only exception to the rule: the image has the creator's watermark.
- If you are the creator of an unclaimed image, you have to post a link with your original work in order to claim the credit.
- This is not an art thread, it is for learning. For sharing your AI art go here

ComfyUI by comfyanonymous (hat tip to
Elefy for calling this one out)
Brand new and super-promising. Pipeline-based workflow. Doesn't have all the features that WebUI has. Install it only after you spend a few month in WebUI.
